The Mole Antonelliana in Turin

The 167.5 metre high Mole Antonelliana is the tallest masonry building in Italy. From the top of the Mole, visitors can look onto the entire city of Turin with a 360° view of its rooftops and the Po river, which looks like a glittering strip that cuts across the city. Designed by Alessandro Antonelli as a Jewish temple, construction was completed in 26 years, due to financial trouble and some doubts as to the building’s stability.

A visit to the Mole is an experience in itself, even before you’ve reached its terrace. In fact, a completely transparent lift takes visitors up to the top of the building, thus making it possible to admire the stuccoes that decorate the vault.

Most of all, the journey up in the lift is similar to floating in the void inside the building's dome. The Mole Antonelliana currently hosts the National Museum of Cinema.
